I woke in a sort of daze. Stumbling out of my bedroom, I moved into the main room. Sunlight flooded through the windows and I blinked it back. My head pounded at the light and I brought a hand up to try and block it out. The doctors had warned me not to drink, especially after I had...hurt myself, that it would tax my body too much, but I had ignored them. I staggered into the kitchen and put the kettle on. My mind was groggy and slow, but one thing remained in my vision when I closed my eyes. Him. Those dark, not quite black curls, those colorful eyes, those damn cheekbones-

No, I reminded myself, it was just some person with Sherlock’s phone. It wasn’t him. Some person who liked messing with my mind. I checked the messages.
John, tell me about your father. Did he... Did he hit you? Please, its important.
I stared at the phone, trying to block the memories. I had hidden them for so long I thought they were gone, but they flooded back quickly.
